Message from Man City fan

the father of the 3 year old lad who was hit on the head with a brick on saturday has sent me an email saying he tried to join TC unsuccessfully, just to let everyone know how his son was doing. so on his behalf:

his son is doing fine, went to hospital to get 7 stitches.
also he does not blame celtic and thinks the fans were outstanding, just the minority of idiots who gave the rest of us a bad name.

let's hope he gets better soon eh!

 

i hope he makes a speedy reocovery!
Hail Hail!

 

If what you say is true, then that is good of him, not to judge the rest of us, by the actions of a few.

We have a small minority of idiots who seek only violence at football matches.It is unfortunate that these idiots are usually the ones in the spotlight. Their the kind of people who claim that we are the 'best fans in the world' while beating up a defenceless person.

 

hope he gets better!

 

get well wee man

 

All the best to the little fella and his family.

 

I absolutely can't stand those kind of idiots. Every club has them and they put a very dark cloud over the true fans.

Hope the little guy recovers fast and that this sort of thing stops.

 

cheers mate

 

aye if ye heard that about other fans you would say scum bags and thats just what they are

 

hope he gets better soon..saw his post on the blue moon he says he has vip tickets to a game hope they all have a good day out

 

if i get my hands on these scummy wee * they'll be eating the * brick they wouldn't have thrown anything if it was a crowd of city fans instead of a small family . ban them

hope the wee guy makes a fast recovery must have been awful

 

Hi Thanks for sorting my account out.

First I would just like to say a massive thank you to all Celtic fans who have sent kind messages about my son. We really apreciate it.

On saturday after the game we were walking towards the ASDA carpark when the trouble broke out. Bottles and large stones were thrown from both sets of fans. We were caught right in the middle.

We made a dash for it and as we left the gate another group of young celtic "fans" threw more stones at us. One of the stones hit my three year old son right on top of his head. The stone was the size of half a house brick maybe a little smaller

His head was cut open and we had to take him to hospital where he had seven paper stitches. He was released from hospital later that night

He is totaly fine , but shaken from what happened.

There has been alot of discussion around all footy forums about what happened to my son, some of it has been twisted as second hand news often does. Thats why I came on here to tell you what really happened,

In no way do I blame Celtic fans for this. The people who did this are not football fans and im sure you will agree that they do not represent the real fans of Celtic FC.

The support from you lot on saturday was outstanding. I had good banter with every Celtic fan I met.

It was just a shame that the Drunk kids outside had to ruin the day.

you are welcome back to Manchester anytime.

We have been offered visit Celtic FC as guests and we will be doing this . . cant wait.

Good luck to celtic this season

Andy

 

they should be ashamed of themselves and should not even associate themselves with Celtic FC
hope ur bhoy makes a recovery

 

thanks for taking the time to clear this up m8 . and again sincerest apologies about what happend to your son .

 

Really big of you to have that view mate.

Hope your wee lad recovers to full health

 

If anyone knows who these stupid * are please give them a kicking from me and every other decent Celtic fans. Shame on you throwing stones at someone who has F all to do with you, mean while a CHILD. Hope he gets over this trauma and is on the mend.

 

how embarrassing for the Celtic fans- news like this makes us look like hooligans when in fact its just a small minority who aren't real football fans. Whoever did that should be deeply ashamed, hope the wee boy's alright! have fun at the vip game you come and see! Hail Hail
